24X7 power supply to Delhi, Rajasthan, Andhra Pradesh

Centre plans to ensure 24×7 power supplies to Delhi, Rajasthan and Andhra Pradesh, power minister Piyush Goyal added in a report he made during an interaction session with journalists.
Goyal’s interaction was part of those planned on completion of 100 days by the Narendra Modi government.
The government’s worry of the impact on power sector was warded off by the minister, if the Supreme Court scrapped all the 218 coal block allocations. “The government is ready for any eventuality. We have our plans ready irrespective of any orders. We are waiting for the final court verdict,” Goyal, who is also the coal minister, said.
The government has sped up the increase in production of coal he said the government has also put in a plea to the court to consider exempting 40 coal blocks which are already in production and produced 37 million tonnes of coal last year and are expected to produce 50 MT this year.
He pointed out power theft as a major problem in the sector and said one of the effective models to curb the menace has come up in non-BJP-ruled state.
Apart from the new policies there is regulation expected in the rate of the power supply.
